Death Is Beautiful in the Official The Divine Tragedies Artwork
It’s been a few months since we’ve gotten an update on Jose Prendes’ The Divine Tragedies, but our patience has paid off because today we have some new artwork and a few stills to share!
From the Press Release:
Film production company Dual Visions has completed the official artwork for the serial killer fever dream The Divine Tragedies, which shows a partially disguised character from the film.
This horrifying crime thriller is loosely based on the Leopold and Loeb murder case, in which two brothers murdered a young 14-year-old boy. This case shocked citizens of Chicago in 1924. Now, writer/director Jose Prendes (The Haunting of Whaley House) is re-envisioning the case for a new audience.
The official artwork shows a wounded young woman and rose petals. The blood reds highlight the darker elements of the film, and the tagline promises murder: “Your death will be… beautiful.” But who will be the first victim? Deep blues also contrast the lighter colors with a butterfly symbolizing transformation. Graphic artist Sasha Burrow and photographer Matt Shapira have designed this artwork to show the nature of the film, which is both bloody and strangely beautiful.
The Divine Tragedies has completed filming, and brothers/producers James and Jon Kondelik are hoping to release the title before audiences later this year on the film festival circuit. Fans of horror will have a chance to see some of the most famous faces in the genre on the big screen, including Ken Foree (Dawn of the Dead), Lynn Lowry (Cat People), Barbara Crampton (You’re Next), and Sean Whalen (People Under the Stairs). Fans will not have to wait long to see the film as its World Premiere is set to be announced shortly.
Look for a trailer soon!
Synopsis:
The Divine Tragedies, based loosely on the famous Leopold and Loeb murder case, tells the tale of Charles Brubaker and his half-brother, Thomas Lo Bianco, who concoct a deadly game to test their superior intelligence against the dimwitted masses. This game will eventually lead to murder. And when Genevieve, a beautiful single mother, enters their lives, they finally find the perfect girl for their first kill. But problems arise when they quickly discover that Detective Homer Gaul (Ken Foree), a cop with a very special gift, is hot on their trail.
